I had what turned out to be Semi leftist ideals as a kid. As a teen I went through an Anti Conservative edgy Atheist ark. Intellectual dark web tried to turn me conservative, but while I was watching Sargon and other Alt Shite content I was always watching some leftists. My homepage was a nightmare. I believed in the marketplace of ideas, free speech, and socialism. But I didn't know the word socialism. I was a no theory having motherfucker. So, I became an anti liberal mad at SJWs for thinking everything was more important than class and that Class wasn't important at all. However, the right ended up being homophobic and shit with no principles and also didn't care about poor people are class.

So I'm a communist cause I finally found the politics that actually cared about humans. The politics that were treated as "impossible" my whole life. As I age, I only drift further and further left. I challenge more of the grand narratives I was raised with. Even if I was to "get something to conserve" there is more out there than my crumbs.

We need to end capitalism so there is a future.

Twitter video is notoriously shit. Uploading results in unintended trimming of the end and sharing such a video has "mixed success" being shared to other platforms. Also, does he guarantee the same pay out as youtube? his views are significantly worth less than a view on youtube for him. Think he basically counts what youtube counts as an "impression" as a view. That's huge when most youtubers of Jimmy's size get a CTR of like 10% ... so thats people who click in to view after an impression. So if the followers were the same size and such Jimmy would 10x the ad revenue moving to twitter.

That wreaks of bullshit. Now if you're being charitable you'd say oh well he probably meant this or that... but thats the problem. Now we have to interpret something that was said with assertive authority. So this is "embarrassing" cause its Elon basically begging for more content on his platform that he can barely serve to his users (limited posts) to try justify a Blue purchase to potentially slow the bleeding. And thats transparently so, but he phrased it like it'd be in Jimmy's interest which most people are just seeing through.
